Industry Investment Rating - Not provided Core Viewpoints - PTA: Commodity sentiment has improved, domestic PTA production capacity supply has contracted, port inventories have declined, and a large number of warehouse receipts are being cancelled. The spread between PX and naphtha has expanded to around $250, but the profitability of alkyl transfer and TDP is not optimistic. The spread between PX and MX remains at around $90. Bottle chips and staple fibers are about to enter the maintenance cycle in July. Market port inventories are being depleted, and polyester replenishment has improved as the basis weakens. The basis of PTA has rebounded from 0 to 30. The maintenance of major PTA factories has significantly boosted the market [2]. - Ethylene glycol: Coal prices have rebounded, leading to an increase in ethylene glycol prices. The macro - sentiment has clearly improved, and the chemical industry has followed the upward trend of the commodity market. Overseas ethylene glycol plants, especially those in Saudi Arabia, have had continuous maintenance delays, which may have a significant impact on the market outlook and boost ethylene glycol prices. The future arrival volume of ethylene glycol will decrease. Polyester sales have weakened, and the polyester industry has entered the maintenance cycle. The rapid increase in polyester prices has squeezed the profits of downstream weaving, and the terminal load has significantly declined, which has a certain negative impact on the market [2].
